Yeah, digging through that is the opposite of easy...

Easier than the alternative multiple times over... and these were examples of how powerful it used to be. These were esoteric problems that couldn't be worked around, either new libraries we were using to do something wired or legacy code we had to interface with

Like I mentioned, normally you could just Google the stack trace and find a discussion on your error immediately. AI is a decent replacement for that at least

This was published in 2011: https://xkcd.com/979/

This was the rule, not the exception. I remember spending a whole afternoon with a PHP error where the error message was in Hebrew. It was bad.

You are seeing the past with rose colored glasses.

I'm really not. This was my daily workflow, one day it was working, the next it was not. There were gradual changes before and after as websites locked themselves down to scraping, but there was a specific update to Google's search, followed by Bing and the sites that repackage it. I switched to using searxng and quant, but neither of them were ever as good

I couldn't narrow down to the day, but I could probably pin it down to a specific week if I dug through my notes
